Why not try it ? eee li iscov'ering^Lewin Carroll: Some' little' time after thepubl'ica- tiou of "Alice's Adventures" we went for one summer holiday to 'Whitby. We were visiting friends, and my brother and lister went to the hotel. They satin oftor"asked us to dine with them there at the table d'hote. I had on on6. side of me a gentleman whom I did not know, but as I had spent a good. deal of time travelling in foreign coun- tries, I always, e,t-onoe,nspeak to any- one T am placed next. I found on this oaasaelon I had a very agreeable neigh- bor, 'and we :seemed to he much; in- forested in the amore books, and' pole ties also were touched on. . After din- ner my slater and :brother rather took me to task for tallcing ao, much to a complete stranger. I said,' 'But it was Matte a treat to -talk to him, and to hoar him talk,. Of one thing 1' am quite sure, he is a'genius." My brother' and sister, who bad not heard himeSpeak, again laughed at me, and eaid, "You are far too easily pleased" I, 'how- ever, 'maintained my padut ands ajd what great delight his convereatiori had given me, and how remarkably clever it had been. Next morning 'nurse took outour two little twin daughters in front of the sea: I went out a sbort'time after- wards, looked for thrum, aid they were listening to him open-mouthed, and in the greatest state of enjoyment, with hieknee covered with minute toys. I, seeing their great delight, motioned to him -to go on; "this he did for some time. A most charming story he told them about sea urchins'andAmmonites.• When it was over, I said, "You must be the author of `Alice's Adventures,'" He ,aughed, but looked astounded, and said: "My dear. Madam, my name is Hodg- son, odgson, and 'Alice's. Adventures' was writ- ten by Lewis Carroll." ' I replied, Then you must have borrowed the name, for only he could have told a story no you have just done." After a little sparring he admitted the fact, -and I went hone and proudly told' my sister and brother how my geniushad turned out a greater one than I had expected. They assured me I must be mistaken, and that, as 1 had suggested it to him, he had taken advantage of the idea, and said he was what I wanted him to be. A few days alter some friends came to' Whitby who knew hie aunts and confirmed the truth of his abatement and thee I made the acquaintance of one whose friend- ship has been the source of great pleasure for nearly thirty years.

As it has well been said of popular proverbs, that they are,the wisdom of many and the wit of one, so theological and moral myths grew up to the point - lar imagination, and were nursed there till in happy season they received a deiinite shape from some one repre- sentative man, whose -inspiration led him to express in a strildng form what alt felt to be true and all were willing to believe. ' The first framers of the myth were, no doubt, perfectly aware of the . , -. significance of these imaginative pictures; but they were aware as posts, not as analysts. It is not, therefore, necessary to .suppose that in framing' their legends they pro- ceeded with the full Consciousness which belonge to the framers of fables, allegories, and parables. During a certain early stage °a -na- tional life, which cannot be accurately defined, but which always precedes a regular written literature, the popular myth, like a tree or plant, be- comes subject to a process of growth and 'expansion, in the course ofwhich it not only receives a rich embellish- nient, but may be so transformed by the Yield &don of a fertile imagina- tion, and ey the ingrafting of new ele- ments, that its original intention may be altogether obseured'and forgotten. How far this first significance may in. after times be rightly apprehended de- pends partly on the degree of its orfg- inee obviousness, partly on the amount of kindred culture possessed by the persons to whom, it is addressed. As of essentially popular origin and growth the math cannot, in the proper sense, be said to�have been the one. tionof any poet, looWever distinguished. Much less could a popular minstrel like. Homer, usang a highly polished` language, .and. who manifestly had many predecessors, be .said to have either created the characters or invent. ed the legends about the Greek gods, which form the critics of . the last century used to call the "machinery" of his poems. In regard; to theological myths, which are most deeply rooted in the popular faith, such a poet as. Homer could only. turn ,to the -best account the materials existing, with here and there a little embellishment: cer expansion, Kihea'e there was no den- se; of contradicting any article of the reoeIved imaginative creed. — Jahn Stuart Blackie, in "On Interpretation of.

Jonquelle. "But the Marquis reminded .Fog - neat. that the person committing this robberyhad brought with him a piece of paper from the basement, that mere thieves entering on the chance of finding some valuables would not have taken this precautirn. "This theory pleased Forneau, and he adopted every excellent suggestion which the Marquis was able to make.

"To their, surprise they found the lock to the drawers of this table broken, and amongsome papers has- tily turned over, at the back of one of these drawers, a small book' with a red leather cover.

In his perplexity Forneau asked' the opinion of the Marquis de Chantelle. "The Marquis suggested the fol- lowing clever device: The Service de la Surete should send an agent to the building pretending to be an official of the government concerned with certain Mentalwtests required, in, order. to register citizens for the electorate.

As it happened the night of the robbery was not the first time that the Marquis had left the door un- closed in the afternoon. It was then that this man. had gone in—taking with him a slip of paper from the basement—broke open the Marquise's desk and searched for the combina- tion, which he finally found and wrote down. The search had required a very long time, and he had not time on' this 'day to open the safe.
